Very profesionial. Saw him for a second opinion. He told me what I did not want to hear. He explained his reasoning for his determination. He explained it in away that easy to comprehend. He also showed me what he was explaining on the MRI and catscan. Even though I was not happy with his diagnosis, I can accept it.
